Bug description:
  Booting Ubuntu 9.04 RC iso image.  I see nothing on the screen until I
  get to the logon window, to get there I  had to use key combinations
  from I knew from booting on another PC to go through boot screen
  prompts. Once booted up the screen resolution is so unusable that I
  can not make adjustments. I believe this problem is due to an unusual
  hardware setup.  This consists of an RCA HDTV rear projection TV using
  DVI input from an ATI Radeon 9250 graphics card.  I believe Ubuntu is
  picking the wrong graphic port or screen resoution on the card at
  boot.  Please note that I have not tested other Ubuntu ISO images
  previous to this attempt.

  Here are the properties of the card (From Windows XP)
